中國石化新聞網(wǎng)訊 國際能源署（IEA）日前在其最新年度天然氣市場中期報告中稱，未來五年，受需求強勁增長的刺激，全球天然氣“黃金年代”將延伸至中國。IEA表示，2019年前中國天然氣需求預(yù)計增長近一倍，從而抵消其他地區(qū)需求增長放緩的影響。IEA表示，2019年底前全球天然氣需求預(yù)計每年增長2.2%，而在去年的預(yù)測報告中，年均增速預(yù)測值為2.4%。LNG將滿足上述需求中的一大部分，另外新建輸氣管線也會起到一些作用。

IEA outlook: 'Golden Age' of gas to extend to China

The "Golden Age" of natural gas will extend to China over the next 5 years, driven by booming demand, according to the latest 5-year gas market outlook from the Paris-based International Energy Agency. In its Medium-Term Gas Market Report 2014, IEA noted that a near-doubling of Chinese gas demand by 2019 will offset a slowdown in demand in other regions. The annual report sees global demand rising 2.2%/year by the end of the forecast period compared with the 2.4%/year rate projected in last year's outlook. Much of this demand, IEA says, will be met by LNG as well as new pipelines.
